Safe holidays in Sri Lanka get mafia bashing View(s):Travelling safe has become a concern in Sri Lanka in the wake of a few attacks on tourists that have hurt holidaymakers trying to take home a memorable stay on the isle. The Minister apologised to tourists for having to endure this trauma and assured them of their safety in Sri Lanka in future. But even tour operators and travel agents highlighted that tourists visiting Sri Lanka were either unaware or not simply following the guidelines on how to dress appropriately in this cultural outpost. A police force patrolling the beaches is a requirement that would ensure the beaches would remain safe for anyone to visit. A safe environment for travellers to come home to and feel welcome is imperative to attracting the right travellers and ensuring proper guidelines are given them to assure them of a safe holiday on the paradise island of Sri Lanka.
